4.0 out of 5 stars Good addition for a prosumer digital camera, Oct 2 2005

This review is from: Olympus WCON-07 0.7x Wide Angle Lens for Various Olympus Digital Cameras (Electronics)
I have a Nikon Coolpix 8700, and the 35mm max wide angle was really limiting the shots I could take. So I bought this lens plus an adapter, and it really expands the range of my camera. I was recently at the Statue of Liberty, and from the base I was able to get my friend, the entire base, and the entire statue all in the same shot.

The lens is also quite light, and pretty durable. However, it is quite large, and doesn't fit so well into camera bags.

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect addition to Panasonic FZ-5, Mar 7 2007

The extra view with this lens means I can shoot indoors and not have to worry about getting a good shot... When I don't need a flash. The only drawback is the lens is large, large enough that the flash on top of the camera is blocked.

Otherwise, I can find so little distortion that I rarely have to correct for it in PhotoShop and at least with my setup there are no additional artifacts or fringing that I've seen on screen or in 5 x 7 prints.

It does not work well into the 12X telephoto range of my camera (extreme tunnel vision and visably soft edges), but the FZ-5 has a quick disconnect lens adapter, so if I need to switch it's not an issue.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great wide angle for point and shoot digitals, Jan 11 2008
By Mary Block "outdoor photographer" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Olympus WCON-07 0.7x Wide Angle Lens for Various Olympus Digital Cameras (Electronics)
I've been using this lens for about 2 years now. Being in Colorado, I shoot a lot of wide angle outdoor shots. This lens is great for my purposes. I did buy an external slave flash so I can use flash with this lens, as it's so big it blocks the internal flash of my Olympus C-5000.
